google rolling out stricter adblock rejection on youtube, removing support for proper adblocking extensions on chrome, jacking up the price of youtube premium by 20%-50%, and also playing ads when you pause a videoβ why the FUCK arenβt you using a fork of/Firefox, uBlock Origin, SponsorBlock, and YouTube reVanced/YTLite+ or some 3rd party app yet? fuck google. this isnβt even about βprivacyβ to me anymore. this isnβt some statement where iβm upset at βbig corpo trying to get their bagβ, nahdah. i just hate seeing shit i donβt wanna look at, i hate seeing that the only legitimate solution is almost as expensive as double the minimum wage and costs almost as much as dinner. iβm not paying 14$ to fix the problem you mother fuckers made. i donβt have the parasocial relationship to care if the guy i watch is getting paid either. iβll buy their merch if i like them that much. fuck google. block their ads.
